Belated AND Spooktackular?

Haven't had a song lesson in a while, so here goes:

TIME WARP
A great song from a cult classic!

The song itself is pretty simple, but you do need to perfect this one move:

A---7-7-9-7-7-7-9-7---
E---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---

It's similar to the blues riff in A:

D----2-4-2-4-2-4-2-4---
A----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---

Preserve that same motion going to the following chords in the verse:
A (6th string, 5th fret)
It's astounding
B (6th string, 7th fret)
Time is fleeting
G (6th string, 3rd fret)
Madness...
D (5th string, 5th fret)
Takes its toll...
Then return to A position

And here's the riff for that line we all know and love (at least how I play)

G--------------5----------------7------------------------------------
D---3-3-3-----5-------5-------7--------7-------------------------
A---3-3-3-----3-------5-------5--------7---7-7-9-7-7-7-9-7--------
E---1-1-1--------------3-----------------5---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-------

FULL TAB

You know what else is SPOOKTACULAR?

CARL PALADINO FOR GOVERNOR!!! AHHHH!!!

I thought I had a song about this...
